View 3 is an experimental programming environment to support
the development and use of distributed programs. It builds upon three
major concepts. First, distributed programs and distributed processes
are basic objects. Second, the port mechanism allows a process to
exchange information with another process, a file or an I/O device
without concern for the type of the object on the other end of the
port. Third, test and use of distributed programs are facilitated by
the user interface program screen format that allows the user to
control both the format and contents of the physical terminal.
